    Hi Everyone, Sorry this took me a while. Here are some documents which so a few of the issues with the Laws of Hong Kong. These are ordinances rather than bills - the structure differs slightly. I have either included a PDF of the relevent text when I have it or given a link to the BLIS online version. Also, I have included a list of terms I gathered from Hong Kong and how I map them to Akoma Ntoso. Feedback please! Sample Documents:   Chapter 614: Basic structure   Chapter 569, s. 27: Interstitial text in a sandwich.   Chapter 112, s. 40: Complex definition including embedded proviso.   Chapter 609, s. 10: Adoption of model law:  http://www.legislation.gov.hk/eng/home.htm?doc=CurAllEngDoc*B05AD905F0326214-482578150029FD71   Chapter 525AD, Schedule 2: Subsidiary legislation containing modifications to principle ordinance.

    Hi Grant, I tried to map the missing term in Akoma for the discussion of today: * copyright - for managing copyright information  included by the publisher during the publication in the footer, we could use             </references>             <proprietary source= #palmirani >                 <hg:oddPageHeading>                     <hg:middle class= normal > Legislation Publication Ordinance</hg:left>                     <hg:right class= normal > CAP. 614 </hg:right>                 </hg:oddPageHeading>                 <hg:oddPageFooter>                     <hg:middle class= normal > Authorized Loose-left and Printed and Published....</hg:left>                     <hg:right class= normal > Issue 47</hg:right>                 </hg:oddPageHeading>             </proprietary>         </meta> - there is also <docStatus> for recording the status of the document (e.g. reserved, confidential, protected, copyrighted, etc.) * Cross Heading          <heading class= cross > or <span class= heading> depends to the position in the text * CommencementNote  - I am inclined to mark-up as formula: <formula id= frm1 name= comencementNote >                 <table id= tbl1 >                     <tr>                         <th/>                     </tr>                 </table>             </formula> * Citation                     <shortTitle> * Action                      ?? I don't understand the case, I need an example * Term                         ?? I don't understand the case, I need an example. * Sandwich                  <container> ?? we need to manage this special case I guess.
